Schafe können sicher weiden (Sheep may safely graze) BWV 208 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)

Again, this is not a wedding song, per se, but it is a familiar piece, often chosen for weddings, perhaps by vegetarians.

Schafe können sicher weiden, wo ein guter Hirte wacht,
Wo Regenten wohl regieren, kann man Ruh and Frieden spüren und was Länder glücklich macht.

Sheep can graze safely, where a good shepherd watches
Where Princes govern well, one senses peace and harmony and the region is blest.

Where’er you walk, cool gales shall fan the glade,
Trees, where you sit, shall crowd into a shade.

Where’er you tread the blushing flow’rs shall rise,
And all things flourish, where’er you turn your eyes.
